Set on approximately nine park-like acres on the fringe of town and the doorstep to the vineyards, wineries and concert venues of Wine Country, this grand country residence is generous in proportion, has town water and the site has plenty of development potential now or in the future.

As you arrive, a grand entrance complete with wrought-iron gates welcome you and a stencil-crete driveway lead you through manicured gardens to the main residence. Stepping inside, high ceilings, abundant light and luxurious fittings provide a sense of quality that is only found in a select few. A huge open plan living space centres around a massive open gas fireplace and bespoke timber bar that could tell many stories. A large timber kitchen opens on to both a breakfast room and formal dining room and a hall leads you to three bedrooms with built-in robes and the main bathroom. A laundry with additional bathroom complete the home and ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning and under-floor heating ensure it is comfortable all year round.

Outside, wide covered verandas wrap the entire property providing places to sit at all times of the day and whatever the prevailing conditions. An in-ground pool and spa make the property enjoyable in the summer months and an adjacent pool house can be used as guest accommodation, a home office, man-cave or she-shed. It is complete with its own bathroom and adjoins an oversized double garage.

The land is immaculate and fenced into a number of paddocks making it perfect for horses or just space from neighbours. Two large machinery sheds complete with power provide ample storage and an earth dam and creek frontage ensure water is plentiful.

The zoning and location of the property lend it to additional or alternate uses which include but are not limited to dual occupancy, health consulting rooms, neighbourhood shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes, self-storage and may even support childcare and service stations.

The convenience of town but with a village setting, the home is also walking distance to The Mighty Hunter Valley Brewery, Simply d’Vine nursery and caf and the most sought-after schools in the area, this property is 45 minutes to the beaches of Newcastle, similar distance to the shores of Lake Macquarie and only two hours from Sydney.
